Would the universe just let me off.
There has been much anxiety and tension in the bird household lately, and I am tired of it. Hubby and I had a heart to heart and have come up with a few plans of attack.
1) the boys now room together, and hubby will work on Boy1's room remodel why I hammer away at my new office/craft room.
I spent all day yesterday moving stuff and decorating a bitchin blue and green room in the basement. Hubby has also been told that he has 2 months to finish the other bedroom and make it inhabitable.
2) hubby and I are going to find sitters and have 2 date nights a month. This is for us, so that we can get away from the kids and time alone.
Things were looking up. Things were awesome for a while....
... Then hubby called me today and informed me that his was cutting back the hours to 3 days a week. After I hyperventilated I thought about it and calmed down. we can survive on that. I have already been slashing bills and getting rid of the unnecessaies. It is doable. The down side is that I wont have enough to pay for classes. Yup, I am pretty sure that I will have to drop out of school. At least for a semester.
I don't know how I feel about this. One one hand I am disappointed, but I am ineligible for financial aid, because I don't have a major right now and am shoring up my undergrad studies. But part of me wonders if this is God pushing me to a different direction. My job is cooshie, and the work is relatively easy. i could keep that position for years and never blink, and without school in my way, I could get a second job while the kids are in school. A friend has already approached me, wanting me to help manage his restaurant parttime.
I dont' know. I am just trying to get a game plan before I panic. I do want to go vomit right now.
